Painting updates and stuff.

So looking at my paint queue it seems I've neglected this blog more than I thought. So far my progress is thus:
* Touch ups on Dark Reapers - Finished
* Touch ups on Swooping Hawks - Just need to do the gems on 2 hawks
* Repaint Warp Spiders - 3 done, 1 needs gems painted the last is only primed.
* Repaint Shining Spears - 2 done 2 need gems and vines painted, the 5th is still the old scheme.
Warlocks - 3 done 7 to go.
Rushed to paint for a tourney 20 Guardians - 4 need gems 16 need minor details and gems.

Also non Eldar related Jane's and Arch's minis turned up in the mail today. Darksword minis look gorgeous though are bitches to put together, perhaps the glue was just a bad batch?

First tournament!

So a few weeks back Anthony asked me to be his partner in a doubles tournament. As I've never been to a tourney before but always wanted to go (though with a couple of friends) I jumped at the chance. We didn't do so great but I had a great time. Also managed to get 20 of my guardians painted, though low quality I'm able to add the finishing touches to get them looking all right in no time. So here's some pics from the day.






















I call this next one "Up shit creek"








8 Dragons - 1 Immobilized Dreadnaught. At least it doesn't have a heavy flamer.








This looked pretty damn good in person. There's also a nice looking nurgle daemon prince behind the trees next to it though you can barely see. The photo is too small to make out much detail. :(






Rend to death - say thank ya!




This was our deployment verse Connal and Raymond, also from Newcastle GW



This was their deployment. The raiders/ravagers are a nice bone colour.



The dragons managed to do 1 weapon destroyed result here. What a joke.





Anthony's regimented orks.



The Fire Dragons actually did something this game bagging themselves 2 Leman Russ tanks!



Dunno what I was looking at here...



My Prism yay!



More orks.




Fear the meganobs pinned in the forest.
